Service Rifle Rule changes

Service Rifle Rule Changes:
From Team Capt. Kurt Borlaug
"
I just got the new CMP rules yesterday and they have some important changes/clarifications;

       5.10.2  Completed match........2 stages or 20 shots in a PISTOL NMC and three stages or 30 shots in a RIFLE NMC

       6.1.1........Rear sight apertures must be round, front sights must be square topped
         6.2.3......after market fixed stocks for AR/M16 type rifles must have at least a 10" length of pull. No collapsible type stocks allowed.
         6.3.1.......on as-issued matches (CMP Games) no bayonets attached
         6.3.2.....M1C and M1D Garands without telescopic sights are allowed provided they comply with other as-issued rules.
         6.9.3....Slings must be attached directly to the front sling swivel; a hook may NOT be used to attach a M1907 pattern OR M1 sling to the front swivel.    

         8.1.6....military or former military members who received Purple Hearts that resulted in partial or complete loss of lower extremities will be allowed to remain in position for rapid fire stages provided they load on command and do not shoulder rifles prior to targets rising and begin firing AFTER a standing shooter has begun firing.   
         8.5.2......Infantry match......between stages while advancing to next yard line magazines must be removed and bolts must be open.   
       9.1.4 and 9.1.6...CMP Games..."Coaching" is limited to assisting other shooters into position, adjusting sights and controlling safety.NO USE OF SPOTTING SCOPES ARE ALLOWED FOR CMP GAMES COACHING  my emphasis added.
........ Service members w/ Purple Hearts; may remain in position and STILL BE ELIGIBLE for Leg points. This is a new clarification that is different from those who chose to stay in position (generally able-bodied) and would NOT be eligible for points.

Thanks Kurt
